Is Hervey Bay worth a visit?

Parents coming to Brisbane (from NZ) for the first time next month. They’ll be here on a Wed – Monday. Thinking of things to do and Hervey Bay/Fraser Island sprung to mind. I’m sure there’s a few of you here that have been to Hervey Bay, would you recommend it for a weekend away with my parents? Is it a good part of Queensland to show them? I’m trying to get my parents to move here and need to show them nice places to convince them. Is it worth the 300km distance? It’s pretty far to drive for a weekend away. submitted by /u/magpie1862 [link] [comments]

Fun things to do for cheap near Carseldine?

It’s my boyfriend’s 28th birthday tomorrow and we are here from the US on a year long working visa. We’ve only been in the country a couple months and I am looking for something fun to plan for the day. I am open to anything, but may also introduce us to something new as well. Any ideas would be appreciated to make the day special since we have no family or friends out here! submitted by /u/drawingablank12 [link] [comments]
